Spread the Word

Our best marketing tool is word-of-mouth through YOU.

If you love LMS and would like to help spread that love, please take a few minutes to leave us a positive review on our Facebook page and on Google (search for LMS Kentucky).

These reviews help the school a great deal, especially with our enrollment period just beginning!

Remember: If you refer a family to LMS and they sign a contract, your personal fundraising fee is WAIVED for the CONTRACTED YEAR!

Those who provide donations to the auction will be entered into a raffle to win an item the night of the auction. Please email the Fundraising Committee before seeking donations to avoid overlap.
